Those would be very nice choices, especially the GP-20!

U-Boat first please! U33C

Reppo,
May I ask where you found your sounds for the Centipede?

Hi Ricardo,
Instead of the U36B how about the U30B and U30C. Only three railroads owned the U36B, eleven railroads owned the U30B along with the GE Demonstrators. The U30C would be the greatest choice as twenty one railroads owned the U30C and it was GE's version of the very popular EMD SD40-2. If you wanted to go slightly more modern you could go with the C30-7 which basically was the updated U30C. Of course other engines I'd like to see would be the EMD GP35 (both high hood and low hood) and SD35 (both high hood and low hood), ALCO C420, C430, C630 and the C636. And speaking of Baldwin's I'd also vote for the Baldwin Sharknose, aka RF-16. Just my **!!2cents!!** and please keep up the great work, the Baldwin Centipede looks fantastic !!*ok*!!


Regards,
Rich S.

The horn on this would be right at home on the default F7.

Aw enough diesels already! There's already a plethora of those things for RW, How about some steam? And not another 'sage brush central' articulated. Some eastern Pacifics or Northerns, Mountains or Moguls, Hudsons or even a Texan would be nice. Diesels are so simple, it would be nice to have something challenging to operate for a change. *!!wink!!*

I think a EMD GP38 or any of these GP Units would be nice to have. !!*ok*!! But a U Boat would be nice to.. Just hope it comes in all the roads who had them

How about someone start a new topic since this has nothing to do with the centipede anymore.

Agree, and best will be if Ricardo do a vote for what next.

...errr, sorry guys I can't resist. This is not suitable for any route available, but I simply love this old ugly machine:

You may think it is ugly, but to me that thing is beautiful. Those old first and second gen diesels are IMO some of the most eye pleasing trains ever! *!!wink!!*
